The MSI Crosshair A16 HX MLG Edition sports a 16-inch QHD+ (2560 x 1600) display with a 240Hz refresh rate and 100% DCI-P3 color coverage.
Under the hood, the laptop is powered by up to an AMD Ryzen 9 8940HX processor with 16 cores and 32 threads, paired with up to an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Laptop GPU with 8GB GDDR7 memory. It boasts up to 798 AI TOPS and can deliver up to 190W of combined CPU and GPU power (115W from the GPU, 75W from the CPU) via its OverBoost technology.
Handling the temperature are two fans, five heat pipes, and a quad-exhaust heatsink for effective heat dissipation. All these are incorporated inside a 23.85mm chassis, which is 14 percent thinner compared to the previous-generation Crosshair.
The laptop also supports up to 96GB of DDR5 memory and PCIe Gen4 and Gen5 storage.
